So I have seen nothing but negativity in the chat for the past few months, so I have come up with 5 reasons to listen to rule #2, shown here for convenience:
This is obvious. When you are rude and derogatory to other users, you are breaking a rule. That means that you are also stating that you are not following the rules, which only an very unintelligent person would say.
Reason #2: You risk being muted or even banned.
When you insult someone, you give them a chance. A chance to get you in trouble.
Imagine you were in a school and you threw a punch at another kid. Do you really think that every time you do this, they will not bother to tell someone in authority? It's the same with words.
Ever heard the police saying, "Anything you say or do may be used against you in a court of law?" the same applies on MCGamer: any word that comes out of your mouth and any action you do can be used against you, either to get you muted or banned.
Reason #3: You are stating that you are a terrible person.
"That's what it says: you are a horrible person. We weren't even testing for that." GLaDOS, Portal 2.
"Only do this [harass] if you want to announce to the server that you are a terrible person." Welcome Tributes to the MCGamer Network!
Remember that video? This is what happens.
I hope this nonsense ends soon.
2. Do not disrespect or harass other members: We want people in our community to feel safe and respected.
Example:
- [User], you suck at minecraft.
- [User] is a hacking noob.
- If someone is telling you to stop harassing them or is making it obvious that they are feeling abused, do not continue what you are saying or doing.
- Harassment is taken very seriously. If you are caught harassing others, you may risk being permanently removed from our community.
- Spreading rumors about others is not allowed.
- Stalking a player around into servers and constantly targeting them is considered harassment
- Do not antagonize other members or staff members in order to evoke any specific reaction to the point of including up to abusive reactions.
